You are correct user, you basically are the only one, and yes it is a nightmare.

What happened?
Link the paper and redpill me, sensei

How is this not dystopian? It's not bitcoin, it's not really decentralized (not open, not censorship resistant--it may be "independent" of FB, but it's not an open blockchain like bitcoin), and all the voting partners are corporations...i.e. dictatorships. Currency is the basis of government. So these consortium of corporations is our new world government?

This is the endgame of capitalism. Get ready for a whole slew of libertarian bootlickers explaining how this is actually a good thing.

whats this?

OwO

I'm a brainlet but it just skimming through it made me think that the actual currency is backed by what is most likely facebook stock (or jew gold, they didn't give specifics.) Seemed like a thing that would only work if people wanted it to, and people are already on the edge with facebook right now. Don't think anyone would willingly buy some meme currency if they don't see the actual (or perceived) value of it.

I don't know about America, but here in Bongland Mark Carney has just released a statement saying to the effect of "lol no". As soon as Facebook floats this it's going to get eviscerated by European legislation (not just EU obviously, more like the wider approach European governments have to US corporate bullshit)

If you could understand it, you might as well give those who couldn't a tl;dr.

>make a new rust clone for proper linear logic

wwwwwwww

stop touching my bulge

They will push to outlaw cash by 2030

The worst part is that far left SJW will do a complete 180° when it comes to capitalism and support this because it encourages "healthy conversations" and they can de-platform whoever disagrees with them

So wheres the tl;dr?

t seething bitcoin cuck

>people are already on the edge with facebook right now
Intel is pushing hardware with surveillance embedded within for more than 10 years. And people just don't give a fuck, you're being naive to think that the general population won't accept this new form of surveillance/control.

Do you have any idea how fiat currencies work? Fucking retard.

Not about security numbnuts, but as a "ah wow I feel so FREE" normie bullshit.

No. I already said I'm a brainlet.

so can i mine it?

>privately issued fiat currency
>transactions run on private network just like mastercard or visa
>the blockchain serves as unalterable long term backup of transactions, there is no mining
Saying it is a cryptocurrency is just a marketing scheme. There is nothing inherently crypto about it, in fact it could work with no blockchain at all.

top fucking kek. Imagine this system implemented in their beloved 40yo Cobol software.

So what is actually the big deal?

there is the big deal.

New world order
A single coin worldwide
No cash

No cash means you're SOL

How is that different from any other meme in-app or in-game currency then? All this is is just faceberg trying slap buzzwords onto a new service.

>The worst part is that far left SJW will do a complete 180° when it comes to capitalism and support this because it encourages "healthy conversations"

nigger i realize that you hate esjaydubyas and want to stick it to em, but nobody on the actual left will support a global currency controlled by megacorps

Corporate jews can actually force population into using it.

they're supporting every other nefarious quasi-governmental action by massive corporations

i think you're confusing leftists with neo-liberal faggots concerned with identity politics

the left were transformed into neoliberals beginning in the later weeks of occupy wall street and then through the next 5 years of saturation identity politics and corporate PR

they will support every bit of corporate bullshit as long as it harms you. they hate you.

stop considering only USA

left, liberism, liberalism, etc. still have meaning in the first world (aka Europe)

that makes as much sense as saying fascists and neo-nazis were transformed into neocons and moderate republicans because trump became president

hardline leftists/rightists don't just abandon their ideals and become politically moderate because of the message in mainstream media

neoliberals are on the left

on social issues, maybe. on economical issues (which a global currency definitely is), they're supporters of free market capitalism.

i'm english

never said they became politically moderate

there are thousands of pundits who spout white-bashing and celebrate corporate malfeasence as long as it hurts "racists", and then give the usual lip service to socialism. all these luxury communism/late stage capitalism people are exactly the same.

Lol, we're on the same path as the USA.
You must be deluded to think otherwise.

No true scotsman.
Many do abandon their 'ideals' when it comes to such things.

>the actual currency is backed by what is most likely facebook stock (or jew gold, they didn't give specifics.)
I read an article which said it was backed by a pool of currencies. So basically they will have an account somewhere with dollars, euros, chink money etc and that's how they will control the rate of inflation by either selling or buying more currency as their price fluctuates.
I don't know if users would ever be able to cash out though because that would be a bureaucratic nightmare and they would need to go through the whole know o-your-customer process similar to what paypal does when you open a business account with them.

The [Libra coin] reserve is the key mechanism for achieving value preservation. Through the reserve, each coin is fully backed with a set of stable and liquid assets. The Libra coin contract allows the association to mint new coins when demand increases and destroy them when the demand contracts. The association does not set a monetary policy. It can only mint and burn coins in response to demand from authorized resellers. Users do not need to worry about the association introducing inflation into the system or debasing the currency: For new coins to be minted, there must be a commensurate fiat deposit in the reserve.

sure, but these people are simply hypocrites. those happen on both sides of the political spectrum.

>No true scotsman.
not really, it's just a matter of applying the definitions correctly. the problem begins when people start throwing around poorly defined, umbrella terms like "SJW leftist", which equal communists/anarchists/socialists with neo-liberals who happen to be into identity politics.

>we’re talking about events that are external to the network. As stated earlier in the white paper, the network is not able to execute scripts that use inputs of data that are external to the network’s state. Thus the modifiers “can” and “must” in the above snippet are surely referring to Libra Association policies or contractual obligations of which the network is unaware.

why do k*kes have to appropriate everything and turn it into literal shit?

Is AML/KYC required?

Apparently it’s not required at the protocol level, but the Calibra wallet states that all users will be verified via government-issued ID. It also sounds like the Calibra wallet will be the only available wallet for a while at least, so it’s unclear if developers and users can run apps on the Libra network that don’t abide by the same standards as Calibra.

>The system is designed to have low fees during normal operation, when sufficient capacity is available.

This is really vague and raises many questions: What are low fees? What is normal operation? What is sufficient capacity?

>How does governance work?

We can see here that the Libra Association is a council of members and a 2/3 supermajority is required to make changes. They are the only ones allowed to mint or destroy Libra coins, but they can presumably make any change they want if there is sufficient agreement.

“Libra is an attack on my financial privacy!”
